That is almost impossible in Israel. Software pirates are rampage
here, such that WGA assumes everything is pirate. I do believe that
it's area-specific, and with just reason. In any case, on my current
Dell I run a cracked XP in a VMWare VM because my legal XP disk won't
validate and the cracked one works fine! I've overcome the moral
reasons as I HAVE a legal licence.

Automatic updates are the only way to update a cracked XP. As for my
(past) professor, I will suggest to him non-automatic updates.
